Review of enemies-of-carlotta:
Rpmlint checks:
enemies-of-carlotta-1.0.3-2.src.rpm
E: enemies-of-carlotta no-signature
enemies-of-carlotta-1.0.3-2.i386.rpm
E: enemies-of-carlotta no-binary
E: enemies-of-carlotta no-signature
The no-binary thing is notable. This package doesn't contain a single
binary, its just a set of python scripts. For that reason, this package
is probably best suited as noarch. I added "BuildArch: noarch", rebuilt,
installed the package on one of my Aurora SPARC machines and it seems to
function in my minimal tests.
Summary:
Good:
- source matches upstream
- License is OK (GPL), COPYING is included in package.
- Meets package naming guidelines
- Meets PackagingGuidelines
- Documentation is included
- Rpmlint checks passed (except for no-binary note)
Bad:
- Package should be noarch
Thanks,
